Towards a Cognitive-Based Approach to Distributed Requirement Elicitation Processes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Distance between stakeholders working on a global software development project introduces problems in communication and control. Processes like requirements elicitation, where communication is crucial, have to be specially rethought in order to deal with these problems. As the requirement elicitation is a human-centred process, we propose using techniques from the field of cognitive psychology to define a new approach for it. Our goal is reducing problems in communication by proposing the most suitable elicitation techniques according to stakeholders’ preferences. In this paper, we introduce our approach and illustrate how cognitive styles might be used to improve elicitation.

Classification of Functional and Non-functional Requirements in Agile by Cluster Neuro-Genetic Approach
Agile development is truly the need of the hour due to its numerous advantages which are in line with the present business trends. A successful requirement engineering serves as a foundation for success for any software development project. Functional requirements point towards the product services and non-functional requirements are related to the emergent properties of the system. Correct and...
متن کاملA P2P Toolset for Distributed Requirements Elicitation
Geographically distributed teams need nowadays models and tools to support a load of activities that usually take place through the direct interaction among people. Our research effort is aimed to understand how decentralized systems, based on a peer-to-peer architecture, can be exploited to support the key activities of global software development. As a first step, we have focused on requireme...
متن کاملTowards Entropy-Based Requirements Elicitation
This paper presents our views towards constructing the universal parsing technique for the software requirements texts and the requirements elicitation technique based on the output of this parsing process. With the proposed parsing technique, it should be possible to achieve language-independent processing of the requirements texts. Source sentences are treated as systems with words as element...

Issues about requirements elicitation have been an ongoing problem area since the very earliest days of computing. However, incorrect requirements, misunderstood requirements, and many other requirement problems are still present in systems development projects. The purpose of this paper is to look at the causes of problems in requirement elicitation process. We will look at these problems from...
متن کاملTowards a Strategic Requirements Elicitation - A Proposal of the PRINCE Model
Requirements changes are sometimes pointed out as being one of the causes for project failure. Our solution to cope with this problem is to plan and manage requirements changes strategically. This paper introduces the PRINCE model that consists of 3+1 types of requirements elicitation processes based on the time of the maturation of the requirements elicitation activity. To explain the model, w...
